Topic: Dynamo Webseries

Hello! I hate looking like I'm joining a forum just to spam around my stuff, but! Teague told me to! And I've been a listener for a long time and wanting to join for a while now, so -

Here's a thing I've been working on! First episode of a show I'd love to work on over the next few years. Basically just wanted to be able to work on something that would let me experiment and remember how to hold a camera again.

Re: Dynamo Webseries

Man, I've been a fan of your stuff for a while, but this is easily my favorite. Very unique, and I have absolutely no idea where it's going. And it could seemingly go ANYWHERE, which makes it exciting. I hope you do more episodes.

Re: Dynamo Webseries

Haha, awesome! Yeah, been working on it for a few months, off and on, though it's based on a story I'd been talking about off and on with my housemate for a few years now (he plays the Bearded Guy).

I'm heading over to Amsterdam midway through February, so I'm trying to see if I can get 2-3 episodes filmed before then... we'll see how it goes. Also gotta finish up a bunch of other stuff. And how is it already the 20th of January!?

Re: Dynamo Webseries

Hah! Thanks!

And I was going to! But then I thought, "Man! I can't just visit a forum to talk about my own stuff!" You have no idea how much I stress this! But I had to swing by the forum and comment on Teague's little masterpiece.

I've been working on this whole thing for a few years, and a couple years ago I started trying to tell this side of it as a comic. I gave up on quickly, because the few perfectionist bones in my body are apparently in my hands, cause I spent hours per panel, which I eventually realized was too slow a pace for my taste (and since I came up with it right after high school it was derivative as hell). Filming turned out to be way faster- got it all in the can in a couple days, spent a few more on post, and bam!

But yeah! I've got a few more episodes worth filmed, and I'm just trying to wrap up post so I can keep releasing them from over the ocean.

Re: Dynamo Webseries

That's cool. I wasn't sure if the series would end up on an extended hold due to mango. Glad that you'll (hopefully) be able to fit another episode or two into your schedule. Dynamo is one of the best things.

Re: Dynamo Webseries

-and 4 months later-

... yeah. So it did get slowed down a bit. Working on Mango, and also finally geting Project London wrapped up are both good things, though!

The super cool news is that a huge chunk of the talented folks that worked on finishing all the PL sound are on board to do the audio- the bummer is that audio was never exactly the bottleneck. But! It's a start!

That to say; episode 3 is finally done! And with any luck ep 4 will be along pretty soon. One of the hard parts is trying to keep things going from across the ocean- there are a lot of little problems that could have been fixed with a day of pickups, but it's also probably nothing that couldn't be fixed with a ton of CG Ahhhh well.

Re: Dynamo Webseries

Mango goes fairly well! We just released a teaser a week ago. It'll definitely be a film, and it'll definitely be a bit bizarre, but I'm hopeful folks will enjoy it. Even if nothing else, it's been wild to be able to work in the same room with so many talented people (so much easier giving feedback in person than in email. Sooooo much easier.)

Re: Dynamo Webseries

And another one! Man, I wish I could get these out faster than every four months- and the next one's gonna be just absurd (we have a good half-dozen major sequences. Might be worth seeing if they can be split up a bit). Still though, this is the funnest format I can think of working in; just wanna slide over to more shooting and less post!
